https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=278930 --- Comment #2 from Rostislav Krasny <rosti.bsd@gmail.com> --- Hi Marcin and thank you for your quick response. After further investigation it turned out that the problem is not related to the DisplayPort 1.2 mode at all and I was just got confused by circumstances. Let me tell all the story again. 1. I installed FreeBSD 14.1-BETA2. 2. I installed LXQT, sddm, Xorg and video drivers. Then I tried to log into the LXQT session and ran into the blank screen problem for the first time. 3. Without removing LXQT and sddm (but I disabled sddm in the /etc/rc.conf) I installed XFCE and lightdm. When I tried the XFCE I ran into the blank screen problem second time and though this is some global issue. 4. I decided to try something different and installed the latest snapshot of DragonFlyBSD with Xorg and some dm instead of the previously installed FreeBSD. DragonFlyBSD has the blank screen problem as well, even in the dm login page. This was the first time when I opened my internal monitor settings and disabled the DisplayPort 1.2 support. This fixed the problem in the DragonFlayBSD and I decided to go back to the FreeBSD 14.1-BETA2. That "fix" confused me and this is why I thought the problem in FreeBSD is the same. 5. I installed FreeBSD 14.1-BETA2 again. 6. Installed Xorg, video drivers, XFCE and lightdm but not LXQT and video works fine even with DisplayPort 1.2 enabled. Installing LXQT even without sddm brings this problem back. Running "pkg delete lxqt && pkg autoremove" fixes it. So this is something in LXQT and it brakes all other installed DEs. I will change the title of this bug report. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
